What are the main principles concerning conduit bodies?

Conduit bodies are used to provide pulling access in a run of conduit, to conserve space where a full size bend radius would be impractical, to allow more bends to be made in a section of conduit or to split a conduit path into multiple directions.


How is an electrical conduit installed?

An electrical conduit is commonly installed in several steps. The first step would be to carefully plan the position of the conduit and what materials that are required for the surface. Then one should execute the plan with common tools such as a screwdriver.


Can a three phase circuit be installed in the same conduit or in different conduits?

The conductors of any three phase circuit must be run in the same conduit. If the circuit requires a neutral, it must also run with the conductors in the same conduit. (If they were to be run in more than one conduit or raceway, the circuit would not operate properly.)


How many bends in a conduit run would be required before the use of a pull box?

There has to be a pull box between every four quarter bends in a conduit run.


When is it permissible to wire tie a wire to a conduit?

What kind of wire? If it's a power wire, why is the place wired with conduit? Commercial buildings must put all power wiring in conduit, so if you're planning to run romex in a commercial building, the answer would be "no", it's not permissible. If it's data wire, note that there may be some "crossover" interference if the data wire follows a power wire for very much distance. It's usually not a problem to cross a conduit and tie to it, but it's generally recommended that you not tie data cable to conduit.

Is a separate ground wire required for each circuit in a conduit?

Not normally. An elaboration of what circuits are in the conduit and what type of conduit it is would be useful, though, and necessary to give a definitive answer.

It is used to connect two pieces of conduit together. Since you did not know the answer, I would call an electrician to work on your project.
